Migraine is a health problem which had a big impact. A neurochemistry change in the dura, that is the increase of the amount of nitrite oxide, originated from an excessive NOS (inducible NOS) activation during ictal. Some researchers assume NO as a main cause of the pain intensity in ictal. ...
Oral pharmacological therapy to abort a migraine ictal has a slow impact because of the absorbance problem during ictal. There occurs an endocannabinoids deficiency on the migraine sufferer. Endocannabinoids are known to press the inflammation process in the trigeminal ganglion through the decrease ...
Oral therapy to abort a migraine ictal slowed in effect because of the absorption problem during ictal. There was an endocannabinoids deficiency on the migraine sufferer. Endocannabinoids suppressed the inflammation of the trigeminal ganglia. ...
The aim of our study is to assess the importance of IONM by showing the sensitivity of the multimodality IONM associating SSEP and NMEP in the detection of spinal cord injury during spine surgery, and the correlation between the modifications of those potentials and neurological post-operative deficit. ...
Over the past year, research has begun to identify greater balance deficits in Parkinson's patients who experience freezing of gait (Freezers) compared to those who do not (Non-freezers). Recently, sensory impairments have been suggested to be a key mechanism that underlies freezing of gait in Parkinson's disease ...
The Ruff Figural Fluency Test (RFFT), originally designed by Ruff et al. in 1987 [1], is a neuropsychological testing instrument frequently used in clinical, medical, and research settings as an indication of non-verbal fluency reflective of potential right hemispheric deficits. Research on the RFFT has shown ...
Headache and migraine are among the top five conditions treated with complementary/alternative medicine (CAM) therapies, despite the scarcity of relevant scientific studies. As CAM use is initiated mostly by the patients, insight into patients' opinions about these methods may improve ...
The learning disorders have extensive bibliography, possibly because these difficulties show a major challenge for education professionals such as psychologists, educational psychologists and speech therapists. It is important to the work of an interdisciplinary team to rescue and modify educational strategies, ...
Demonstration of the role of food and feeding time in determining daily rhythm profiles of gut derived melatonin in carp (Catla catla) led to present study on the mechanism of neural regulation of its gut melatoninergic system. In this in vitro study, different pharmacological agents were used to demonstrate ...
Currently, several cancer therapies are based on neutralizing anti-VEGF antibodies and small-molecular-weight tyrosine-kinase inhibitors that target the VEGFRs. These new strategies for cancer treatment show the clinical relevance of inhibiting VEGF signal-transduction pathways that are exaggerated in pathological angiogenesis. ...
Acute clinical worsening after initial improvement in a patient treated for Herpes Simplex Virus-1 (HSVE) encephalitis is a clinical dilemma. The worsening can be either evolvement of new neurological symptoms or worsening of initial symptoms. ...
To evaluate the effects of Botulinum Toxin Type A (BTX-A) and 7% Phenol injection in the management of spasticity in a patient with traumatic brain injury at the University Hospital of the West Indies (UHWI). ...
Goldenhar syndrome (oculo-auriculo-vertebral dysplasia with hemifacialmicrosomia) is a rare congenital developmental anomaly involving the first and second branchial arches [1]. The incidence of Goldenhar syndrome has been reported to be between 1:3500 and 1:5600, with a male: female ratio of 3:2[2]. The exact ...
Incidence of stroke increases sharply with age and the cognitive sequelae of stroke increases significantly along with the increasing number of elderly. Stroke is a syndrome characterized by sudden disruption of blood supplyto the brain and therapid development of focal neurologicaldeficit. Stroke is a significant ...
Dementia, a disorder due to cognitive decline, results in impairment in attention, language, memory, executive function, social cognition and perceptual motor [1]. With the fast paced advancements in health care leading to prolonged life span and ageing communities, the elderly population at risk of dementia is increasing. ...
Brain abscesses occur in both immunocompetent and immunosuppressed individuals. Depending upon the immunological status of the patient, clinical risk factors and causative organisms, which may be multiple in a single lesion, are variable. ...
